Yahoo! News - Fingerprint food

Yahoo! News - Fingerprint food

Not much to the article really, just a supermarket in Germany has completed pilot testing a fingerprint id system for paying for groceries and they are ready to move forward placing the scanners in all stores in the region. It definitely could be convenient and I'm generally comfortable with this kind of thing, but I'm surprisingly hesitant about this. I guess since they rarely look at my signature on my check card, nor do they ask for a picture ID to even remotely verify my identity, I could probably warm up to this.
